White Chicken Chili

I got this recipe from my former roommate Jennie, and I think it's a fabulous alternative to the usual chili. I usually double it. Oh, and I generally leave out the cayenne pepper. - Sarah

1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 or 3 cans of great northern (15 oz.) white beans rinsed & drained
